Great way to organize things for those searching....I was looking for something in this genera just this evening.

But good God, I hope and pray we don't need this category any more!

According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you.1 Peter 1:3-4

It's unfortunate that we need a memorial site, but, due to the sheer number of people on the 14ers and other high peaks these days, there are bound to be more fatalities.

This is a good place for us to come and honor our dead, though, so thanks for setting it up, Bill.

May it also serve as a repository for "what can go wrong" so that others may learn from our mistakes, and possibly avoid repeating them. Perhaps through education we can at least keep the accidents to a minimum.

As you already know from my PM a few weeks ago, I'm glad to see that you like the idea of having this section on the site. I think we'll all appreciate having an area on the forum where we can remember those among us who've paid the ultimate price for this adventure!
